ReplyDeleteC'est superbe et poétique. Merci Rachel
ReplyDeleteFantastic, Rach! I'll admit, I wasn't too sure at first, but by the end I loved it. As always, it was great fun to watch the evolution of your page. I particularly liked the addition of the smaller birds, they really finished the page off beautifully.

ReplyDeleteThank you for your videos; they are inspiring to say the least! I wonder if you could tell us the font you used for this page...?
ReplyDeleteHi Terri, Thefont is called "Things We Said"
DeleteReally fabulous page. I love the cute details and your fantastic technique.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful ... I just love watching your process!! Did you seal or do anything to the computer generated text to stop the ink from running? I have an inkjet printer and have trouble with prints getting wet. Thank you for sharing your lovely art work with us. Kate
ReplyDeleteHi Kate,
DeleteAll inkjet images are prone to ink issues, but how much the inks move really depends on the brand. I find printing on matt photo paper helps a little, and I will often seal them a little with matt medium before use, one swipe with the medium, then leave it to dry, then go back again after drying if you missed a spot, but don't go over the same area twice without drying it first ;-)
